i tried every way possible to play a file while downloading it; it doesn't work.
- i tried to start the download, then start play(file) after a while: crashed.
- i tried to download the first part of the file, close the handle, start play(file), then continue the download and append it to the file on disk: crashed.
- i tried to download the file to q:\web and to play(http://127.0.0.1/file): crashed.
i give up.
*edit:
version 1.35
bug fixes...

it freezed on the first try, but when i restarted xbmc and tried again in worked.
anyway the script didn't even start with yesterday build. perhaps that's what jmarshallnz last fix is for.builded with that fix, the script works again.

as i already said in another thread, a way i would be willing to work with would be if someone is willing to host data-scrapping php scripts that would be called by every user of xbmc, and those scripts would do the data-scrapping of the html pages, and produce xml data.
then, when the html pages changes, only the php scripts would have to be changed to produce the same xml.
that would work fine as long as websites don't ban the data scrapper's ip... though i'd guess that would happen often.
maybe we could create a 'pool' of hosts for the data scrapping scripts, and a central gateway could randomize access or something...
it might be a good idea to contact those websites and ask them if they would be willing to allow us to use their data in exchange for their logo on the script or something. but i don't see yahoo accepting such a proposal...
